▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - Preparing graphene-modified copper-based electrical contact material based on in-situ synthesis comprises (i) using polyethylene glycol or polyvinyl alcohol as solid polymer carbon source, and dissolving the solid polymer carbon source in alcohol to form homogeneous mixed solution, preferably the dissolution temperature is 20-80 degrees C, (ii) fully stirring the copper powder in the homogeneous mixed solution, filtering the copper powder in the solution and drying, coating the surface of the copper powder with polymer layer of polyethylene glycol or polyvinyl alcohol to obtain a copper powder coated with a polymer layer, heating the copper powder coated with the polymer layer and calcining in high-temperature heating furnace at 500-1050 degrees C for 0.5-2 hours, the heated shielding gas is a mixed gas of hydrogen and argon, and converting polyethylene glycol or polyvinyl alcohol on the surface of the copper powder into graphene in a protective gas. USE - The method is useful for preparing graphene-modified copper-based electrical contact material based on in-situ synthesis. ADVANTAGE - The method: introduces graphene reinforcement into a copper-based electrical contact material by an in-situ chemical vapor deposition process, which greatly saves the cost of the graphene raw material and solves the process problem of uniform dispersion of graphene in the copper matrix; and significantly enhances the mechanical strength and arc ablation resistance of the contact material without reducing the conductive and thermal conductivity of the contact material.
